IPL 2025: There Was No Home Advantage At Chepauk For CSK, Says Fleming
Chennai Super Kings: Chennai Super Kings (CSK) head coach Stephen Fleming admitted that his team has been struggling to understand the conditions at Chepauk in recent years, following their crushing 50-run loss to Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in IPL 2025.
Despite building a spin-heavy squad at the auction, CSK found themselves undone by a surface that favored seam bowling. RCB pacers Josh Hazlewood and Bhuvneshwar Kumar exploited the conditions brilliantly, combining for figures of 7-0-41-4 to derail CSK’s chase of 197.
"Well, as we've been telling you for a number of years, there was no home advantage at Chepauk," Fleming said after CSK's biggest defeat at home. "We've won away from home a couple of times. And we haven't been able to read… we've been really honest with you. We haven't been able to read the wickets here in the last couple of years. So, it's not new. We are trying to come to grips each day with what we get, and we don't know.”
